I tried to record this dictation exactly as it was told to me (this is based off of The Story of Ferdinand):
The Story of Jakes
Once upon a time in Jupes on a farm, there was a little pig and his name was Jakes. All the other little pigs would throw mud at each other but not Jakes. He liked to sit and roll around in the mud.
Sometimes, Jakes' mother would worry about him. She would say, "Jakes, how about you go back to the other pigs and throw mud?" But Jakes shaked his head and said, "No, I Just like to sit and roll in the mud." But, she saw that he was happy, so she understood, even though she was a pig.
As the years went by, Jakes grew and grew until he was fat, big, and strong. All the other pigs got big, too. They would still throw mud. They wanted to throw mud at the big pig fights but not Jakes. He still sat down and rolled in the mud. One day ten big pigs got in a car for a little bit and then came home. Then Jakes sat on a Jack Beetle! If you were a Jack Beetle, you would bite a pig! Jakes was huffing and puffing and running and snorting quick and quickly and fast and faster!
He stopped at the red light and he stopped at the stop sign. Ten farmers laughed and told Jakes, "You are the funniest pig ever!" And all the pigs said, "You are the best pig!" And all the pigs threw mud and all the pigs rolled down the hill in the mud...with Jakes.
